Anyone else dealing with the snow in the NW?

It's the hill east of Salt Lake City. Never gets talked about on the forum but it's a good pull leaving the city. 10 miles up I think it is. Might be 12. 3300 feet climb in elevation.

 

Ok. I've been over it a few times.

 

Several avalanches tonight. Big one on lookout pass buried a Prime truck. Temperatures on the ground level got close to 40 degrees. It’s below 20 now so it’s an icy paradise out there.

 

I delivered in Fife WA yesterday and talked to a couple local drivers in the lot waiting for our appointment times. Both had been here over 20 years and never seen so much snow in the Seattle area. There was almost 2 feet on the ground around the lot where we were standing but it was melting quickly.

 

It doesn't get better on I 80. Currently closed both directions. Estimated to reopen in 12 to 18 hours. It's hell all over the country right now. Might as well relax a bit.

 

If you run east out of SLC on I80, parley’s canyon/ summit is the first 20 miles outside the city.

 

Im staying home until all this bs passes. Hopefully it will improve next week and ill be able to load and go out on another trip.

 

I don't blame you. Cheaper to sit at home than it is in a truckstop.

 

... made it through the gorge today 120 MI at 25 to 35 miles an hour then just passed Cascade Locks smooth sailing all the way to the Comfort Inn Weed,Ca. Oh BTW CHINATOWN there's a Walmart driver that's going to need a job starting tomorrow blew by everyone around Arlington just made it to the 71 mile marker and crashed it up.

 

I would imagine quite a few drives will be looking for work this week.

Seen a lot of oopsies
